[Duh]

many thanks OldChap this will help for sure

[File not found]

this is tempting... :p
I'm not very familiar with WCG, how does the opterons scale against other cpus?

what do you mean by scale. these boards are not compatible with istambul chips ( hexa´s) if thats youe question

[OldChap]

opty 2356 output for a dual cpu below ...I would expect 4* 8356's to be around double

[shoota]

ew ~5000 points? i'm assuming wcg points is that correct?

[Someguy1982]

I've got a quad 8346 and it usually puts in ~ 23k - 27k WCG points per day. More if you don't run HFCC and HP2, but I'm running them anyway.

Here is a link to the BoincStats page for the 4X4 8346

http://boincstats.com/stats/host_gra...wcg&id=1125963

Remember, WCG points are approximately 7 * boinc points

-edit- Sorry I have a quad 8346 NOT 8356, so keep that in mind.

[File not found]

I'm running WCG on an i7@4ghz and bigadv folding on this board (8346HEs 1.8ghz); I might switch the projects around if it gives more points.

these boards are not compatible with istambul chips ( hexa´s) if thats youe question

just wondering, was this confirmed?

[OldChap]

For just a few weeks I have run xp32 so far and totally stock for the numbers above .... so treat 5000ppd Boinc as a guide for a quad cpu board or in full context have a look at mine compared with my 6600 @3.5, 3350 @3.84 and qx9650 @4.0 at.....

are there anyone with access to opti (the slow ones) for 25 bucks a piece ? if there is, im in for 2 boards and 8 cpus.

im not in if i have to find cpus on ebay at 60 bucks each. thats too much.

[Gonzalo-Gonads]

Im not sure which optis to choose!!! Anyone have any recommendations if 250 dollars is max for all 4?

[Bail_w]

seems like this thread is not going anywhere, so where is the reseller?

[anubis]

So, thats 5 boards in europe atm. hmm... i have to look into my pockets and see if i can squeeze into this. Dont need my 5850 and that should almost cover the necessary parts, if s/h&taxes dont kill it.

[shoota]

i'm so anxious, heard anything yet Duh?

[vaio]

Not quite sure what this thread is about but the pup is considering some multi core/multi socket goodness.

U.K, for the record.......just along the road from Oldchap.

[pawmadsen]

hi guys, i just spoke to a guy on ebay, and he has 150 x 8347 cpu's, he can sell them for 27,5 each.. is that something we can live with ? (i can)

he says hes will be getting 100 of 8346 also. dont know the price for those. but prob much the same.

some info: (from wiki)
Opteron 8347 BA 1.9 GHz 4x 512 KB 2 MB 1 GHz 9.5x 1.2 75 W 95 W Socket F September 10, 2007 OS8347WAL4BGE

and i need someone to take over for me, as i live in denmark, and it would be stupid to ship them here, and then have to ship them back to the states.. Duh are you game?

[shoota]

Am I correct that all these barcy's we're talking about are all quad cores?

[pawmadsen]

yes

[s0lid]

Put me to that list ^^
I'll go for 70$ max.

[pawmadsen]

how many will buy opteron 8347, thats the 1.9 ghz quadcore ones, for 27,5$ each (dirt cheap) ? i need some numbers here, i think i will go for 16 cpus instead of 8.

Duh, you can update me to 4 boards. if all goes to hell i think i can sell them for a profit. its under 200$ for 30,4 ghz...

[Duh]

do not take it in a bad way but you commented some posts ago you lost interest. This thread is aimed to organized a bulk buy ( not only for the boards but for the cpu's). if you really think it is going nowhere, why make such a negative statement when we are all trying to defeat these ugly diseases and try to be as nice as possible between us, sorry but I can't understand it...

Im not sure which optis to choose!!! Anyone have any recommendations if 250 dollars is max for all 4?

we seem to have the cpu's covered

So, thats 5 boards in europe atm. hmm... i have to look into my pockets and see if i can squeeze into this. Dont need my 5850 and that should almost cover the necessary parts, if s/h&taxes dont kill it.

NICE , we have a new addition then ( remember there is no commit into buying, just making reference you are interested )
